"I think a platform as big as YouTube with the billions of views, they have a responsibility now," Bouzy says. "You know, this is not 1999. This is not the early days of the internet. A lot of folks consume their news on these platforms. And whether it's YouTube, whether it's Twitter, whether it's Facebook, they have a responsibility now to protect their users from some of this toxic stuff that's been put out there. And if they're not willing to do that, we need legislation to push them in that direction."These tech libertarian profit-based companies will not change of their own free will or by public pressure. They will take every opportunity to deny accountability. They need to be forced to comply through legislation, kicking and screaming.
Um every streaming platform is allowing fascism be streamed due to "freedom" which is depressing knowing these assholes would love to turn YT/Twitch/whatever to some 1984 shit of they got into power. If they were in control, they wouldn't let "freedom" be a thing for left leaning thinkers at all.
Strangely there were no complaints about She-hulk, an entirely fictional (which means no agency by their logic) and computer generated character twerking Now do the same with Bayonetta and they lose their shit

As for being required to pay the estate of her rapist, “this court is presented with no other option,” Porter said, noting the restitution is mandatory under Iowa law that has been upheld by the Iowa Supreme Court.

Crazy...The circumstances around the stabbing are so clear cut I can't understand why anyone would rule in this way outside of racist\misogynist hate.
Quote from: Sulik2Can she appeal? This should be textbook self defense. Ludicrous decision. She plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter. Yes, she can technically appeal the sentencing or alternatively for ineffective/inadequate representation.It is not textbook self-defense as the rapist was asleep and she could have escaped without confronting or killing him. Not that I agree but those are the facts as presented so far.

I hope she gets all the help she needs through the gofundme

That thread was embarrassing. A bunch of mostly men telling a woman she's not pro choice enough.
Hence why we all got so pissed off. Especially when there were dudes with a history of sexist remarks in there acting high and mighty. Nobody is born perfect, nobody is perfect, I sure as shit ain't either, but so long as you try and be better than you were the day before that, I think we can all say, is something worthy of respect and admiration. We're all going to fuck up from time to time, so my legitimate hope is that people learn something from this and try to be better versions of themselves.That said, considering a few of the appeals, I think that day is a ways off.
wait he's gay?
And Nazi vigilante murderers are walking free in a street near you while this shit happens.

Any idea why Frag got banned from Era?I couldn't find any banned messages in his recent posts.

If the old grandpas were all consenting, this should not be a big deal. It shouldn't even be a deal.
So people are wanting this to happen as MS is third in the market? Isn't that their own fault in this case. It's not like Xbox hasn't been around for over two decades, but sure, let's allow them to buy up publishers.
Real life wiggly bosoms and bums A bunch of pixels wiggly bosoms and bums
“Agency” and fictional characters is the greatest txxxp card ever invented to double talk about women and sexy outfits.
Quote from: ShutUp on September 14, 2022, 07:27:39 PMReal life wiggly bosoms and bums A bunch of pixels wiggly bosoms and bums I didn't think anyone said it was replacing real women.
Tearing apart a woman's appearance and judging them for what they wear must be some new feminist practice I havn't heard of.

Never understood why they transferred their hatred of JKR to Harry Potter. Nothing about HP is transphoic. The devs are going out of their way to make the game look as inclusive as possible. Their hatred of all thing HP seems to be impotent rage masking as righteousness.

Everything Mess has ever gotten, he's gotten through force. He just thinks this is how normal people operate. Dude vouches for a panopticon police state if someone is mean to him on League of Legends. Sick individual.
Stellar Blade It looks so good. Cheeks, swords, parries, and guns. Looks way better than Bayonetta 3 in terms of gameplay. Shame it's ps5 exclusive.

Once again, I’m noticing a distinct melanin deficiency in this roster.(Image removed from quote.)Master Raven is literally the only Black person you have. I can’t see Leroy missing the base roster given his prominence in Bloodline, & no Eddy?EDIT: I see you edited in Leroy, but what about Eddy? Tekken makes it a point to have at least one of the Black capoeira characters in the console launch roster.

Ireland now offers free contraception for women aged 17 to 25Waiting for Kyuuji and co to respond with, that's great but why only women? What about the novaries?
why is it only a woman's responsibility to prevent pregnancy? why not put some of the onus on men?
